Just dip and pip things

netflix is making a hockey show called "the sticks" that is based on a very real tragedy that occured in canada in 2018.

the show follows a minnesota high school team after their bus crashes and coming back to hockey afterwards.

in 2018, the humboldt broncos' (a junior A team made up of 18-22 year olds) bus was hit by a tractor trailer on a highway intersection. 16 people (10 players, 2 coaches, and 4 team staff members) were killed, along with 13 other players severely injured.

the memory of the humboldt broncos crash is an incredibly sensitive subject carrying a lot of trauma to both the survivors, their families, and deceased's families. the trajectory of hockey in canada was changed significantly after this tragedy.

despite this, netflix has decided to make a show using the death of young hockey players for profit. they did not consult the survivors, nor the deceased's families. they stole a canadian story for a feel-good cash grab.

It’s still untitled and in the process of being made, but the story premise is that a coach’s widow takes over his hockey team in Minnesota after he dies. The coach and other players die in a bus crash.

If you’re unaware, in 2018 there was a horrific bus crash in Saskatchewan with the Humboldt Broncos. The crash took 16 lives with 13 survivors. It was a nationwide story. teams did fundraising, memorial nights, sticks out on porches, it really brought the whole country together. So to see this tragedy get turned into another shitty Americanized Netflix show is fucking disgusting and infuriating. A parent that lost their son in the crash has said it feels like a punch in the face.

The executive producer is Canadian so there’s no way this is just a coincidence. they’re also creating it in BC and getting funding (or tax credits) from ‘Creative BC’. Guess they couldn’t actually set the story in Canada, huh? Would’ve been a little too on the nose??
